Spacecraft Software Systems Engineer II - Blue Ring (Top Secret / Sensitive Compartmented Information (TS/SCI) Clearance Required)
for section headings; we could have multiple h3 sections: Minimum Qualifications, Desired Qualifications. However they said prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. Could combine Minimum and Desired into one Requirements section with two sublists? But we need to follow spec: use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). They gave examples; we can choose which to include. We could have Requirements (covering both minimum and desired). Or we could have Qualifications (covering both). Since they gave both Requirements and Qualifications as examples, we can decide.
We have Minimum Qualifications and Desired Qualifications; we could make a Requirements section with two subheadings? But spec only says use for section headings; not forbid using etc? It says use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Likely they expect only h3 headings. So we could have a section "Requirements" and inside we could have two

That would be more sections but each substantive. However they said prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones.

We also need to include maybe "Special Mentions" as part of About or separate short p. Could add a p after About: "Relocation provided. Top Secret / Sensitive Compartmented Information (TS/SCI) Clearance required to start."
Now ensure we remove boilerplate: Application Close Date line, Vision statement? Actually the vision statement is part of About; we keep.
We need to preserve all substantive information; not invent or summarize away detail. So we must keep all details from responsibilities, qualifications, pay, benefits, relocation, clearance.
We must not include duplicated lines. Ensure we don't repeat.

About the role
At Blue Origin, we envision millions of people living and working in space for the benefit of Earth. We’re working to develop reusable, safe, and low-cost space vehicles and systems within a culture of safety, collaboration, and inclusion. Join our team of problem solvers as we add new chapters to the history of spaceflight! The role is part of the In-Space Systems business unit, which is focused on addressing two of the most compelling challenges in spaceflight today: space infrastructure and increasing mobility on-orbit. As part of a hardworking team of engineers, you will work across organizations, to connect spacecraft, payload, and ground elements to define advanced solutions for our customers. This role is on the Mission Systems Engineering, Integration, and Test (SEIT) team and supports the Flight Software Architect in defining system level software requirements and allocations to define the software implementation approach for space and ground systems. Your vision will drive project success and make a significant impact in our field. You will have the opportunity to collaborate with a wide array of professionals, including customers, team members, systems engineering, architecture, hardware, and software teams. We are looking for someone to apply their technical experience, leadership skills, and commitment to quality to positively impact spaceflight. Passion for our mission and vision is required!
